Like many photographers, I am always chasing the light. I love mornings and late afternoon, and do not like the strong sun of mid-day which bleaches hues and strains lenses. Driving to dinner in Glens Falls, I looked out of the truck window and saw the setting sun striking the faded yellow line, and yelled to Maria to pull over which she did, honking the horn so I would see the car rushing up behind me (I didn’t.) Wanted that shot for a long time. I love the space of the country, the sweep of it, reminds me of how broad and complex and grand life is.
